The otherwise run-of-the-mill LG SH240 GSM HSDPA phone (http://aving.net/usa/news/default.asp?mode=read&c_num=79323&C_Code=01&SP_Num=0) comes with a silicon (or maybe silicone?) coating on its front, including keypad and d-pad, in order to give the user the feeling of touching skin, rather than cold, unfeeling rubber. And then, to drive the point home, LG hired hot models and told them to touch each other. Nice going, LG. There's a second even more "explanatory" pic of the Korea-only phone (and models) below.

I approve of the chicks, less so the freaky skin textured phone.

I have never punched numbers into my cell-phone and come to the sudden epiphany that it should resemble live flesh.

I'm weird like that :-\

Damnit, before I looked at the article I thought the phone was either literally made out of skin or they implanted some crazy shit where pushing on the girl's face actually communicated with the phone and made a call.

that's what i inferred from the title as well as the first picture where the girl was touching her cheek. i was actually impressed. then they ruined it by just creating a freaky phone cover.

fleshy phones FTL

I’ve never had the name of someone I dated 4 years ago brought up as frequently as this. Its uncanny and I am sure I’m not alone in wanting to spoon my eyes out when it derails otherwise entertaining topics.

I was disappointed in the phone itself. An eXistenZ-style would have been so much more unique.

How about you start with not sticking the little guy into PC/GS women anymore. Or better yet, not mentioning the little guy in PC threads.

I have no problem with Mini Me (Baby Back?) jokes. As I was posting I was already wondering who would come up with the piccolo comparison. (I was also wondering who might go so far as to use a whistle reference which is what I would have thought to use) And that was funny.

You joined this board in May of 2007.

You are so lame I cannot find the words for it... except, just plain not funny.

ROFL @ this thread and its jumping tracks to Backlash's piccolo.

At this point, any attention is good attention.

I met Bethany in 2002 and I've followed the boards here for at least that long. I'm surprised you'd even go there as the queen of PC multiple login disorders.

As for the lame comment- glass houses, Baby-Back, glass houses.
